A/N: Have I left you guys hanging? Haha! Good!
Just letting you know, for some reason my bold works and sometimes it doesn't. And then my italics don't seem to work at ALL. Which is really frustrating. Because it gets YOU guys confused I think. SO, I'm gonna see if font makes a difference at all.
Recap: Fayre's gone.
Chapter 11Lily's POVI woke up hoping that last night was just a dream.
It wasn't.
I had cried myself to sleep last night. We spent until midnight, looking for her. We looked at the map first, but I was convinced it was wrong. So was Sirius.
When it looked like she really WASN'T in the castle, that's when I knew Sirius has always been in love with her.
For, he kept looking when we all gave up. He was in denial. He couldn't accept that she was gone.
I still wanted to tell Dumbledore… James still didn't want to. There was the Forbidden spell used. And who knows what other spell the person had used…
Then the thought hit me, only Severus warned her. So, it was Severus' fault. The anger from my former friend just kept building up. Then it fell flat towards defeat.
The only person who would be able to help me find her, was probably Severus…
Sirius' POV"Tell me where she IS! GODDAMNIT! JUST TELL ME!" I screamed at him. Then I threw another punch at his jaw. His head slammed against the stonewall that time. He laughed and rubbed his jaw as he spat out some blood. His murky green eyes twinkled.
"Not even when she's dead," he choked out. My temper flared up. My eyes flashing.
I didn't say anything. But I reeled back my fist and then made contact with Fletcher's nose. His eyes rolled to the back of his head and he fell to the ground, clutching his nose.
"You're…" he panted, "…mad…" I was just about ready to jump on him and start pounding him until he wasn't able to talk ever again. So those eyes wouldn't open again. So his heart would stop beating! But someone grabbed me from behind.
"Enough. It's enough, Padfoot," whispered James. Fletcher had time to run away.
"He doesn't deserve to LIVE," I spat watching him run.
"She's not dead…" His grip loosened on me. I turned around to face him.
"You don't know that," I shook my head.
"Sirius…"
"Just, leave me alone." James looked at me sadly through his glasses. I watched him turn the corner. I then sat down and leaned my back against the bloody wall. I took out a cigarette and lit it.
I hadn't smoked since fifth year, since Fayre had convinced me not to do it anymore. I had only done it for a month. But, I had always kept a cigarette with me, just in case, I figured.
I breathed in the smoke. And then I let it puff out from my mouth.
And my grey eyes didn't release the tears that burned in behind my eyes.
I didn't really realize I was in love, until she was gone.
Remus' POVJames and I watched Sirius as he hit the guy for the tenth time. This time it hit Fletcher square in the nose. James and I cringed as it made a horrible cracking sound. Fletcher fell to the ground clutching his gushing nose.
"I should… I should stop him before he starts kicking him… Don't want to deal with broken ribs do we?" said James trying to smile. I sort of smiled back as James ran over to Sirius and had to hold him back with all his might. Fletcher got up and started running.
"HE DOESN'T DESERVE TO LIVE!" screamed Sirius after him. Then Sirius turned to face James. Even from a distance, you could see that Sirius grey eyes were crazed. With anxiety. With anger. And maybe even with a little guilt.
James walked by me and patted my back.
"Watch him okay?" he asked, whispering in my ear. I nodded. Sirius angrily pulled out a cigarette. He hesitantly lit it. And then he sighed as he breathed the smoke out. He hasn't smoked since fifth year, I thought.
He's going to be okay, I thought after a while. Once I decided to leave, I heard him make a choking sound.
And that's when I really realized.
Sirius Black was definitely in love with Fayre Monroe.
And no matter what she or I did, nothing would change that.
Sirius Black almost started weeping.
He was in love.
And… for me, it was just a moment of attraction.
A/N: This was a REALLYYY short chapter, I know.
Sorry guys! But there's more on the way. This was sort of a really sad chapter. In my opinion. Sirius is in love with Fayre. And he didn't REALLY realize it until she was gone.
